Grandma Peaches always loved Valentine’s Day. In 2008, she enlisted two of her adult granddaughters, Rebecca and Judith, to help her craft handmade cards for all 21 of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Overcoming both frailty and dementia, Peaches sat up straight at her table and signed each card. On Feb. 14 that year, I received a call as I headed into yoga class. Grandma Peaches had left this earth. Later that day, my card arrived, carrying her final message of love. — Brenda Bernstein
